Literature talks address students and scholars, who like to be introduced to the field of new institutional economics. The talks primarily aim at raising interest. That’s why we try to cover a range of literature in a short time (see list of articles below).

Location: C3 Centrum für Internationale Entwicklung, 1090 Wien, Sensengasse 3 in the „Alois Wagner Saal“. This is close to the University Campus (Altes AKH). We hope to provide an informal atmosphere, which will encourage discussions. There will be coffee waiting from 14.00 to 16.00.
